Thank David Cutcliffe for the Peyton Manning approach.

During their Tennessee days together — Cutcliffe, the offensive coordinator, Manning the star quarterback — it was instilled in Manning that practices were to be treated like games.

"That is just kind of something I have kept with me, and that was 20 years ago, in 1994," Manning said after the Broncos practice Tuesday. "So it was good advice and I think it's good advice for any young player and any veteran player, as well.

"To me, this is where you become a better football team, out here on the practice field. You don't just show up on a game and expect to be a good football team."
